The Branle du Haut Barrois is found in Orchesography by Thoinot Arbeau.

Steps Used

Choreography

As with most branles, this dance is performed in a line of people holding hands or (if enough people are present) a circle. It is not necessary for the dancers to be paired into couples.

During all of the steps, the hands and arms are shaken up and down in time with the springing action of the steps.
